That is beautiful!  When I was a kid and my mother and I would drive
from Connecticut to Florida on vacation, I would wonder in awe about
the different lives people must have in those little towns along Rte 1
(before I-95 was finished.)  It was all SO different from my little
town.  Now as I frequent those exits and byways and know a little pie
shop or an elementary school off an exit, I am in awe that my life
would take me full circle.
